Asking for someone else -- this is the question he's given me.

1998 TVR Chimaera 4 ltr
Where does the vacuum pipe from fuel pressure regulator fit (where does it get its vacuum from)?

I'll pass on answers -- if any more info needed, I'll check (in other words, I know nothing!).

Cheers.

AFAIK its from the plenum just below the stepper motor...

On the V8s it goes on the same aluminium housing as the stepper motor, under the 20mm or so wide black pipe that goes to the stepper motor. It is hidden away further down just under the big pipe union, and can't be seen from above.
My engine is out at the moment, PM me if you want a pic.

Many thanks to both for the info, now passed on.
Chris, my mate will come back to me if he wants to take you up on the kind offer of a pic... I imagine he wants to check out first if he needs it. Will let you know.

That's sorted now, no need for pic, so thanks again.

But now one more quick question, then I think he's OK smile
What's the ignition timing setting?
